Before you go

These open questions need confirmation; Wayproof does not fill them with guesses.

Which road designation applies to the Waterhouse approach?

The 2012 guide prints 4N31; the 2010 overview map labels 5N31 by Pinecrest Peak and Waterhouse. Preserve both; confirm on the current MVUM and road orders before driving.

Open question. Linked evidence does not resolve this gap.

Which order identifier describes the June 2026 4N12 restriction?

The alert summary says STF-16-2026-78; its structured number/link and signed PDF say STF-16-2026-07. The interval has expired; neither expiration nor an old alert listing proves current road opening. Recheck the current MVUM and orders.

Open question. Linked evidence does not resolve this gap.
